    Airship/seaship housing "apartments". Can we have this?

    How about allowing us to purchase and furnish an airship or a sea ship.

    The Braveheart in the wolves' den pier is a perfect example of what alternate housing floor plan could look like.

    The dimensions of that vessel are similar to that of a mansion (with two indoor floors only), its walls are fairly perpendicular to the floors so they can accommodate the same furniture we already use for regular housing (altho the second floor might need to be heightened a quite a bit and maybe for the bow space where the walls curve but that could be treated as staircase space and refuse wall mounted items). But the overall floor plan allows for plenty space to make up rooms or use the space as players see fit.

    The top deck could be the "outdoor" space for outdoor furniture, just toss a large planter in the center between the masts to toss in trees and other stuff with roots in there, and the rest of the space can accommodate all the other outdoor furniture we currently have. And you could access the inside of the vessel from the door that is already there under the ship wheel area (cancelling the stairs that allow you direct access to the lower decks).

    Bonus: Add a few spinning propellers on the top masts and you got a tatanora class airship, for the same price!

    Now picture this, park that baby it in the water overlooking a distant shore and you got a lovely boat house. Park it in mid air overlooking a mountain range and you got a lovely airship home.

    And you can make it accessible via a "ferry" NPC which would pretty much be like the apartment caretaker that lets you choose which apartment/ship you want to go to and drop you off on the top deck

    To leave the vessel you could just click on the "exit" marker conveniently located somewhere along the railing of the top deck in the ship and you'd go back to the pier/airship landing where you came from.

    Now wouldn't that be grand?

    I'd prefer not to see any half-assed implementations now that would preclude a far more enjoyable implementation later (e.g. upon such time as we can actually pilot airships rather than merely using them as venture-bots), but I'd love to see this in time.

    Good idea. I think the terms you’re looking for are either garage, or hangar. I suppose submarines would need a pen.
